I'd really like to see other peoples view on this, since I agree that this an arbitrary list... but I don't intend to use the configure flag and I'm not maintaining it so any list is fine by me. > Presumably, if the logic is that experimental > software that a developer is playing > with goes into Local (so can easily be removed) and "stable" software > (which you rarely mess with) > goes into System, then we should only mark as 'core' software software > that is relatively mature and > doesn't change much and that few people are working on. IIUC, if you have a "stable" GORM in System and want to experiment with SVN version in local, this configure flag won't actually help, since this flag is a flag for -make and not for individual projects (which it can't be since many projects such as GORM do not use/need autoconf support. > Let me know if there is any agreement on other pieces of software to > include.

FWIW, I don't believe that -gdl2 or -gsweb should be core, mostly because I don't know what "core" is supposed to mean. Yet if there is consensus that it should be "core" I don't mind setting it.
